Overall, I absolutely loved Mashina. Controls are easy and gameplay is straightforward, making it an excellent choice for a low-stakes game. Adapting the game to both keyboard and mouse introduced some issues, but for a two-man team this is an impressive milestone for version one.

Mashina never tries to rush you, and that’s the beauty of it. From the soft sound design to the robot’s warm smiles, everything about the experience says, “Take it easy.” There are small frustrations here and there, like the occasional conveyor belt mishap, but they feel more like playful quirks than real problems. This is a game about simple joy: digging, discovering, upgrading at your own pace, and watching a handcrafted world slowly mend itself. It’s family-friendly, stress-free, and absolutely fab for anyone craving a slower, more reflective gaming experience. Mashina is a love letter to creativity and calm. It’s not about challenge or speed, it’s about wonder and the satisfaction of exploring a world made with heart.
